Sunday Special: Fresh from the Farmer's Market

Walking over to the Brentwood Farmer's Market is a great way to start a Sunday and get ready for the week ahead.  I don't know about you, but I feel great when I eat fresh and natural foods. Matt and I did a cleanse (of sorts) a couple weeks ago and are thinking about doing another one, but until then our fresh finds from the farmer's market will do:

• We got a Red Cure from The Raw Juicery to share while we walked around
• 3 Ruby Red Grapefruits (one of which I am eating right now)
• Oyster Mushrooms
• Mixed Berries (blueberries, raspberries and blackberries).  I love berries for snacking and for topping my greek yogurt (plus a bit of honey, of course)
• A bunch of Thai Basil.  We'll use this for adding flavor to meals throughout the week and maybe even make some fresh pesto.
• Avocado... duh.
• Alfalfa sprouts to top avocado toast and put on sandwiches
• Last, but not least, a bunch of White Snap Dragons.  These are one of my favorite flowers and they will last a full week in vase.

And now off to do my taxes.  Yes, I have waited until almost the last possible day.

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday!  I've been so bogged down with work lately, but I always find time to browse the web :)  Here are a few of my favorite links from this week....


Loving this neon and floral look from Brooklyn Blonde.  It's a perfect spring look!  (and that skirt is one more reason I love asos!!!)

Do Less, Get More - Toward the end of each week, I find myself wishing that I could cancel all weekend plans and just relax.  As life gets more and more busy, it's hard to unwind and regroup.  I love Houzz's 10 tips to boost creativity and productivity by simplifying.

Is it weird that I think I could live in a world of White & Beige?  Ok, maybe not a world... but definitely a home.  Inspiration from The Decorista.

Such a cool way to make the most of your instagram photos from A Beautiful Mess.

Bar Carts for Every Budget

Well, I am finally ready to buy a bar cart!  I have been yearning for a pretty bar cart for a couple of years now, but didn't feel like I had a good spot in my apartment to put it.  In my new apartment I've got room to spare, so here I go on my bar cart hunt.  Here are some bar carts I've found at different price levels (Dream, Splurge & Steal).  Unless I find a vintage cart for the right price, I'll likely be buying a bar cart from the "Steal" list.
